Example Answer
Community Answers
The interviewers want to know what you took into consideration before sending your application to Tulane University. They do not want to hear that you mindlessly sent out a million applications, hoping that something would stick. Share with the interviewers the consideration you put into your application.
Some methods of consideration could have been:
- Talking to/interviewing alums of Tulane University.
- Attending an open house at Tulane University.
- Extensive online research.
- Researching the most renowned graduates of Tulane University's medical program.
- Meeting with a career counselor and asking for recommendations.
- Speaking with a current student at Tulane University, specifically someone in the program you are interested in.
"I was sure to conduct a great deal of research before applying to Tulane. I started by interviewing some alumni I know and spoke with a couple of your current students in the medical program. Last year, I attended the open house here as well. Your school left a very positive impression on me, which is why I chose to apply here."
